One of Satoshi's email addresses, this one is given on the Bitcoin whitepaper.

I copied this grading scale mechanism from a failed Google interview ;-)

One problem with it is that I am always very hesitant to put a 5 on anything, who can not look at the documentation?

It is also hard to scope things right. Who can claim to be a C++ or Linux kernel expert, even if you wrote a book about it, since those are such humongous topics?

As a result, I haven't updated this in a while, and things may be out of date.

If your project does something that interests me, I can what it takes to contribute. Tell me what I must know, how long I have to learn it, and I'll call you back when I've mastered it.

Happens at startup without doing anything, and then keeps happening randomly infinitely many times... on a almost clean 24.04 ISO install on Dell Inspiron 15 3520... God how can it be so bad.

Viewing the apport issue a bit further shows title:

TODO find teacher name, all seem to be made by the same cute dude from UCSB.

A Microsoft format for flashing microcontrollers by copying files to a magic filesystem mounted on host, e.g. as done on the Micro Bit and Raspberry Pi Pico.

Happened on P14s on Ubuntu 23.10, which started with fresh Ubuntu 23.10 install.

However it did not happen on Lenovo ThinkPad P51 (2017) also on Ubuntu 23.10 which had been upgraded several times from God knows what starting point... At first one had X11 (forced by Nvidia drivers) and the other Wayland, but moving to p14s X11 changed nothing.

Both were running GNOME Display Manager.

Same happens with Super + L, but also CLI commands: askubuntu.com/questions/7776/how-do-i-lock-the-desktop-screen-via-command-line

The polynomials together with polynomial addition and multiplication form a commutative ring.

We don't need to understand a super generalized version of tensor products to know what they mean in basic quantum computing!

Intuitively, taking a tensor product of two qubits simply means putting them together on the same quantum system/computer.

When we write the bra-ket notation: $|00⟩$ that is the same as $|0⟩\otimes |0⟩$.

The tensor product is called a "product" because it distributes over addition.

E.g. consider:

Intuitively, in this operation we just put a Hadamard gate qubit together with a second pure $|0⟩$ qubit.

And the outcome still has the second qubit as always 0, because we haven't made them interact.

The quantum state $\frac{|00⟩+|10⟩}{\sqrt{2}}$ is called a separable state, because it can be written as a single product of two different qubits. We have simply brought two qubits together, without making them interact.

If we then add a CNOT gate to make a Bell state:we can now see that the Bell state is non-separable: we've made the two qubits interact, and there is no way to write this state with a single tensor product. The qubits are fundamentally entangled.
